SEASON SYNOPSIS
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

In this third action-packed season, MacGyver (LUCAS TILL) leads his crack team on one high-risk mission after another, crisscrossing the globe to keep the world safe from harm \u2013 while using little more than bubble gum, a paper clip, and his unending supply of resourcefulness.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Lionsgate releases this third season of MacGuyver<\/em><\/strong> onto DVD presented with a 16×9 enhanced widescreen aspect ratio and includes Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks on each episode. Nothing special about either, in fact the video in some spots look a bit oversaturated, but both were serviceable enough.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

MacGyver<\/em><\/strong>, like the remakes of Hawaii Five-O<\/em> and Magnum P.I.<\/em> (which makes up CBS\u2019 Friday night lineup) is updated for the 21st century and 21st century audiences with more flash and flare than anything resembling good storytelling, though I guess in this case, Lucas Till has been okay in the lead but still doesn\u2019t hold a candle to Richard Dean Anderson, hell Tate Donovan who plays his father would\u2019ve been better suited. In any case, I can\u2019t be too offended with this version but it is not must-watch television.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
